My therapist now is fabulous. I know a person trained in EMDR and she told me that they learn in training not to use EMDR on people with DID and that the therapist should not have done it at all even if I had asked because it’s dangerous for people with DID. I don’t think any particular modality or technique works for everyone and I’m glad that things are available. Just because it sounded stupid to me doesn’t make it stupid, but it did mean she should not have tried it. I know many people who sing EMDR’s praises.
